Bear Hands

Bear Hands are a textbook example of contrasting personalities uniting to craft something more than the sum of their parts. Vocalist/guitarist Dylan Rau, the Brooklyn-based quartet’s self-confessed musical Luddite (“I can’t read music, but that’s ok because I’m more of an ideas man,”) peppers his supersonic chatter with an infectious collection of witticisms. By contrast his songwriting partner, guitarist Ted Feldman, grew up playing the cello and carefully selects his answers, admitting to being “a bit of a control freak.” Read more on Last.fm

Sickkkk, our cover of Carly Simon’s “Why” is #SOTD on Amazon Music. Give it a whirl: #JustAsk, “Alexa, play the Song Of The Day on Amazon Music.” And if you don’t have Alexa, hear the tune here: https://amzn.to/2NYmFyx

Yooooo, we covered Carly Simon’s “Why” and it’s up on Amazon Music!! https://amzn.to/2NYmFyx
“My parents loved Carly Simon so I grew up listening to her at home. As I got older, I discovered she had made a song with Nile Rogers from Chic. I was immediately intrigued and when I finally heard it, it exceeded my expectations. The poppy, dubby, new-wave bounce juxtaposed with her soulful, heart-breaking lyrics solidified it as one of my all time favorite songs.” – Val

Our bestest bass player Val married the heroic Abby and it was grand! Besos y besos!!!
